[NFB-Krafters-Korner] Want To Know Wednesday 9/5/18

[Henry Osborne]

Good Morning to you all, yes, there is a rotating loom that I believe is  by 
the Authentic Knitting Board. It is or was available on Amazon.
I heard of someone who propped their looms over a laundry hamper and the 
project fell into the hamper and they turned the loom around.

I do most of my looming on a tv tray.  I like a hard serfase for my work. 
Scarves will drape down the back of the table.  I have not seen any looms on 
legs, yet!
Would a turn table for cans help to put your loom on and rotate it, while 
looming?
I may be dreaming, but I think I heard of a loom where the center rotates. 
I think it might have been Authentic Knitting Board.

I really like the metal crochet hooks. There are also metal that are 
painted. Those are a bit slower, if you are afraid of metal hooks. I really 
like bamboo knitting needles. They are just silky to touch and the yarn 
stays on them a tiny split second longer then metal meedles. I need that 
tiny split second for accuracy with my stitches.

I would like to have recommendations of large looms. I don't like the Cindy 
wood loom I have. To me the pegs are huge, stick up to far. I would like a 
stand where the loomed blanket can fall through and I can turn my work 
fairly easily. Maybe on wheels or saucer bottom on the legs to move the 
stand as I work.

Happy Wednesday to everyone out there.



The following question comes from our good friend Becky F.



Which type of needle, loom, beading, or grid  do you prefer and why?



Which types have you tried?



Here is a great opportunity for you to share your experiences and knowledge 
with the rest of us.



Nella
